SIEM Detection Test: Honeypot – FTP Auth Test
Detecting when a Honypot is accessed is important to detect lateral movement across your environment. We recommend that SIEMs should be tested for honeypot detection to ensure the detection of lateral movement which could originate from both employees and external bad actors.
